A Special Issue of Journal of Modern Social Sciences (JMSS)

Interdisciplinary Integration of Technology, Business, and Humanities in Modern Social Sciences

Abstract & Focus: Reshaping Social Sciences for the Digital Era

The global ascent of the digital economy and the accelerated pace of scientific and technological innovation are fundamentally restructuring contemporary society and economy. This transformation necessitates a comprehensive re-evaluation of the methodologies and frameworks within modern social sciences. Driven by the "New Liberal Arts" initiative, this Special Issue addresses the critical need for a synergistic integration of traditionally distinct disciplines: Economics, Management, Business, and Humanities.

We seek groundbreaking research that explores this integration through a critical lens. Contributions should detail how intelligent technologies and disruptive business models are not isolated phenomena, but are deeply intertwined with cultural evolution, ethical considerations, and socio-economic governance. This platform is designed to foster cross-disciplinary dialogues that yield new theoretical insights, sustainable policy implications, and practical solutions for managing the complexities of the modern world.
